Traditional Tahitian monoï with golden flecks that make a tan glow
Hei Poa Pur Monoï Tiaré Nacres Or is a traditional Monoï de Tahiti (Appellation d'Origine) enriched with golden pearly particles, made to illuminate the body and hair. The base is coconut oil in which Tahitian tiaré flowers are macerated, which nourishes and softens the skin and gives the famous warm, floral scent. Fine mica and iron oxide flecks catch the light for a satiny, golden shimmer. In summer it enhances a tan, and all year it adds glow to legs, shoulders and hair ends.
The texture
A light oil with suspended golden flecks. Below 24°C, monoï naturally turns solid and white: warm the bottle under hot water or in your hands and it becomes liquid again. It spreads easily, absorbs fairly quickly and leaves a satin finish with visible shimmer.
Who it suits
- Tanned skin that wants extra glow for evenings or holidays
- Dry legs, arms and shoulders that need softening
- Hair ends and lengths that look dull
- Fans of the classic tiaré scent
Worth knowing before you buy: this oil contains no UV filters, so it is not a sunscreen. It is fragranced and contains allergens such as linalool, geraniol and citral. The shimmer can transfer onto light clothes.
How long one bottle lasts
A few drops cover both legs. Used a few times a week, the 100ml bottle lasts a full summer season.
